| Description | Tanomastat is an orally bioavailable and non-peptidic biphenyl matrix metalloproteinases inhibitor. For MMP-2, MMP-3, MMP-9, MMP-13 the Ki values are 11, 143, 301, and 1470 nM respectively. |
| In vitro | Tanomastat (1-00 μM; 5 days) inhibits tubule formation completely at 15-100 μM. Tanomastat (1-10000 nM; 6 hours) prevents matrix invasion by endothelial cells in a concentration-dependent manner (IC50=840 nM) [2][3]. |
| In vivo | Tanomastat (100 mg/kg; p.o.; daily for a 7-week period) inhibits local tumor regrowth and inhibits the number and volume of lung metastases [3]. |
| Target activity | MMP2:11 nM (ki), MMP13:1470 nM (ki), MMP9:301 nM (ki), MMP3:143 nM (ki) |
